Loyal Theorists, we have found the Simpon’s hometown of Springfield; we’ve even found Peter Pan’s Neverland. But WHERE in the world is Barbieland? Margot Robbie’s Barbie and Ryan Gosling’s Ken travel by boat, roller blades, rocket, car, and more to leave their world and enter ours. But, according to the Barbie Movie logic their world is also in our world. Grab a map and let’s get to searching!

I love how Weird Barbie literally stated in the movie ‘don’t think too hard about it’ but Matt went and did the opposite
-
As someone who lives in Monterrey, I must say: that explains why Ken is obssessed with horses! Stereotypically, Monterrey people dress like cowboys and are into cowboy culture. We even had a governor we called "Bronco"
-
One small problem with the routing. The Desert scene clearly displays a Saguaro Cactus, which is only found in the Sonoran Desert that is located in California, Arizona, and north western Mexico. That means Barbie and Ken had to go around Baja California until they reached the Sonoran Desert in the Mexican state of Sonora and then travel to the Chihuahuan Desert and then on to Monterrey.
-
The amount of research that goes into this is crazy. Gotta respect the dedication
-
Mat acknowledging the fact that Barbie land is literally shown on the earth then continuing on his rant is the most hilarious thing ever 😂
-
I'm not gonna lie, BarbieLand being in Mexico is both the most hilarious and on brand theory for Matpat.
-
Fun fact. If you pay close attention in the minute following this time stamp 9:19 you can see the camping route goes through Santa Barbara. Barbara being Barbies full name (;
-
The only addition that I would make to this theory is that Monterrey is actually a Kendom. We have Cola de caballo (horse tail) cascade and our most emblematic mountain is called Cerro de la Silla (saddle mountain). Most of our grampas houses look like a Mojo Dojo Casa House due to the horse depictions.
-
Matpat is the only grown man that could find a fictional city based on a doll for little girls
-
The fact that this city also has the largest Mattel factory in the world is insane
-
Can MatPat tell his method of deduction? Like, how does his theories take shape so accurately and are consistent. I would like to take a leaf from his book.
-
Barbieland would be a great idea for a theme park, or at least a section in a theme park. Maybe one day, with the popularity of the movie, Mattel will make a deal with Lego to add a Barbie section to Legoland.
-
As a mapmaker, I applaud these cartographic quests for fictional lands like Springfield and now Barbie Land.
-
as someone who lives in Monterrey this was a big surprise. can't believe I've lived in Barbie land this whole time, now I can def brag about it. thanks Matpat! <3
-
I am a HUGE Barbie nerd and I recognized like all the sets, discontinued dolls (and why they were discontinued..), and all the references to Barbie lore(real world or otherwise). Needless to say I lived this movie….😂
-
We need a deep dive of the looooooore of CheetahBoo
-
I love how this implies not only that they could’ve just arrived at Venice Beach early on the journey with the speedboat, but that Mattel was literally right there within walking distance at most
-
I knew this was gonna be the next video, he always has to find the location of a fictional place and honestly, I’m here for it!
-
7:11 I like how he refrences weird barbie bad geography and then proceeds to call London a town 😭
-
Imagine at 3 am that town just blasts the barbie girl song at max volume.
